    Treatment regret???? Better described as treatment OUTRAGE after being treated like a concentration camp inmate by the CROSS CANCER INSTITUTE. No shared decision, no treatment options discussed Coerced, deceived, intimidated extorted into one shot of ADT CASTRATION ELIGARD that was described as a six month shot but it has left me partially castrated with low T even two years later, and I'm denied TRT. NO follow up for the horrific quality of life destroying ADT side effects. No help dealing with gynecomastia

    Excellent presentation. However, it still pisses me off to hear Dr. Shultz claim Lupron type ADT CASTRATION is reversible. The truth that every patient must be told is that testosterone recovery is undetermined, that up to twenty percent of older men will NEVER RECOVER their testosterone above castrate level, and, after 18 months on ADT, only 25 percent of men will recover their testosterone levels after a median time of five years. We are being deceived about Leuoprolide type ADT CASTRATION, and without full disclosure, there can be no FREE AND FULLY INFORMED CONSENT. ...THE coerced, deceived, and extorted administration of these toxins without consent is CRIMINAL ASSAULT CAUSING GREIVOIS BODILY HARM.

    Before I retired I was a counselling therapist for many years. I was keenly aware that decisions about one's life should be made by the one who has to live with the consequences. When I was diagnosed; all manner of things were actively suggested and in an overly optimistic way. Of the many drs I saw only one was open and realistic about the harms likely from treatment. I decided against all advice to refuse treatment. Because for me personally quality of life is much more important than length of life. My Doctors had the opposite priorities and they also did not need to live with the consequences. They had successful well paid careers selling something I did not want. Its been five years and my cancer has grown. My PSA is 83. But I've had five great years enjoying my life. I still have no symptoms. Who knows; I might still have years to enjoy. But if I die today, I still believe I made the best choice. I've already won my bet. The reason we are having this conversation is that often the so-called treatments offered are worse than the disease.

    • @larryhagemann5548
      @larryhagemann5548 ปีที่แล้ว

      There is a confusing array of alternatives and experiences. I am 80 years old, had proton therapy 16 years ago which was successful. My PSA recently has climbed and a PSMA scan shows some cancer in the seminal vesicles. No other bone, hip, back, or organ issues. I like my life and am not interested in the side effects of all the alternatives. I have mentally refused all treatments. I like my 8 hours of pure sleep, tasteful coffee in the morning, and no mood swings. My doctor (also) encourages me to enjoy my life and to the page to the next chapter.

      My PSA of 6.5 was discovered by accident back in 2017, it’s now 6 years on and PSA is 10.7 no symptoms of any kind just had MRI PI-RADS 5 now they want Biopsy and possible Radical Prostatectomy. I think the biopsy alone will trigger something 🤷🏼‍♂️ I’m 73.

      Not to mention, they have far less invasive treatments, like HIFU Tulsa cryotherapy for those eligible. It's a great alternative one percent risk of erectile dysfunction or incontinence, but insurance doesn't pay for it. You've had accumulate some wealth on your own to do it, and typically have to travel and in a rough economy a lot of people don't have the money even in their 50s and 60s to drop 25 or 30 K.

    Prostate cancer is on the rise because the methods of detecting it are ever more accurate, the MRI can now pinpoint and sample something the size of a pin head, mostly they are insignificant low grade low volume, but there still plenty of “snatchers” ready to say “that’s cancer, it’s aggressive and active, need to move quickly”!

    I wanted to listen to the doctor presentation and am not surprised nothing was mentioned about the oh 50+ years that have led up to us visiting the doctor. The PSA is a measure of INFLAMMATION in the body in particular the prostate due primarily to diet. It has nothing to do with black, white, gay, straight. IMO everyone over 50 should assume they have diabetes, cancer, heart disease and stroke risk and stop eating sugar/carbs and inflammatory seed oils. At 50 I’d been watching my PSA rise slowly topping out at 6.35, I went to 2 urologists who SCREAMED at me that there was NO WAY TO LOWER MY PSA so I started fasting, KETO and continued exercise. Over 2 years I cut my PSA to 3.0! I pressed my physician as to how I was able to lower my PSA? She ran out of the exam room!
